Have you ever considered building your own nettop? After all, if building your own desktop computer is possible, why shouldn’t building your own nettop be? All it requires is a working knowledge of how computer parts fit together, and of course, knowing what items exactly you need to purchase, and where to buy them. Building your own nettop could end up saving you more than $100 USD, as pointed out by Fudzilla. It counts components such as a motherboard that allows a dual core Atom chip, high capacity hard drive and RAM, and other necessary nettop parts, but only gives readers something of a short introduction to actually building the nettop. However, it’s still a nice quick guide that anyone who’s interest was piqued by the prospect of building a nettop should read. You may do so via the link below.

What this tells me is that it is possible to produce nmettops that are a lot cheaper. Of course manufacturers need to have some assembly process, but on the other hand they buy components far cheaper.
But if it is so easy it creates a window of opportunity for the small guys to offer cheap nettops (if they can’t get Windows licenses that cheap they can always bundle linux). In the long run this probably means that nettop proces will come down a lot.
